In the games I ran and played in a few years ago the bidding was conducted via this board's chat room or via a Yahoo messenger conference. This was the most...
If you try to do all the bidding in a single transaction (detailed orders by all players), the Atreides should be told the identity of all cards but not when...
I really don't see how that would work in a realistic game...for instance, in IJ3, this last turn, the atreides lost the card knowledge half-way through the...
True enough ... but it's a trade-off for speeding up the game. The more true to face to face the proceeding are, the more complications that can slip in...
When we play we always play without guild and the bene gesserit. Do you guys do the same or randomize? Do you enjoy the 4P game? I hate that no recent activity...
Don't like 4 person game nearly as much, we find that it really starts to lose something with less than 5 players. In a 5 person game, we always lose the BG ...
Very interesting how you leave the E out. As we find he is needed to the stop the fatman's 1st or early turn win. Or at least keep the Atriedes honest or a...
Dear Dune Board Game Group Members, The date on our main page says that this group was founded on Aug 12, 2001. However, this group actually started as a...
Hi all, It has been too long since I have played Dune so I decided to go looking for other players. As it was pointed out that this list is now at almost 400...
I am considering running one so if you don't mind being a little patient while I work out how I am going to handle certain things then I will put you on my...
Hi Gang! I've got a copy of Dune I'd like to sell, but it's incomplete. I got if off ebay, and I didn't notice for ahwile that it was incomplete. It has two...
The Dune warehouse is located on Ix, where we have the robots we're not supposed to admit that we have.... Kidding aside, I think you either have to...
Hi all! I just read the rules on how to play dune and I'm really interested in playing. I was just wondering if anyone was going to start a play by email, and...
I would like to start a new PBEM game, but I can´t create a new table for players to join (we´re at the maximum of 10). So if anyone of you want to take...
If you wish to join a Play By E-mail game, please have patience. Most games last between 6 and 12 months. This means that it may be quite sometime before a new...
There is no need to start a new table. Please recruit players from the existing database. --Stephen ... table for players to join (we´re at the maximum of...
not sure on the golden path question...but after Dune, I think Heretics is my favorite of the series... if my copy of the dune encyolpedia was nearby, and I...
From what I understand (quite a bit came from a dune encyclopedia) Leto was saving humanity by being limited. Humanity would never explore the unknown ...
I've always interpreted the whole golden path/saving humanity thing as Leto being a sort of arch-enemy against whom humanity must strive. He thus prevented...
Kewl. That is what I thought the Golden Path was too, but wasn't sure. It never really said what he was saving them from though, just that his Golden Path was...
A new PBEM has started. Players were selected from our groups on-line database. If you would like to follow along, please check out the blog for the game here:...
I just looked in my Dune Encyclopedia but there is not a lot in there about the Golden Path. It does indicate that part of the Golden Path was about putting an...
Hi, Kisa! There is a good sheet for excel at the DuneBoardGame, under files, Game play files, game statistics round two.xls. You can download it there. Alastor...
We are starting a new pbem game but we need still three players. Harkonnen, Emperor and Guild dots are vacant. Is anyone interested in joining the conflict?...
